Parametric information geometry with the package Geomstats

Alice Le Brigant, Jules Deschamps, Antoine Collas et al.

We introduce the information geometry module of the Python package Geomstats. The module first implements Fisher-Rao Riemannian manifolds of widely used parametric families of probability distributions, such as normal, gamma, beta, Dirichlet distributions, and more. The module further gives the Fisher-Rao Riemannian geometry of any parametric family of distributions of interest, given a parameterized probability density function as input. The implemented Riemannian geometry tools allow users to compare, average, interpolate between distributions inside a given family. Importantly, such capabilities open the door to statistics and machine learning on probability distributions. We present the object-oriented implementation of the module along with illustrative examples and show how it can be used to perform learning on manifolds of parametric probability distributions.

Computing the optimal keyboard through a geometric analysis of the English language

Jules Deschamps, Quentin Hubert, Lucas Ryckelynck

In the context of a group project for the course COMSW4995 002 - Geometric Data Analysis, we bring our attention to the design of fast-typing keyboards. Leveraging some geometric tools in an optimization framework allowed us to propose novel keyboard layouts that offer a faster typing.
